Technical Abstract

Disclosed is a method performed by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, including identifying first offset information and second offset information, determining a size of uplink data for the UE, and transmitting, to a base station in the wireless communication system, the uplink data with at least one of acknowledgement/non-acknowledgment (ACK/NACK) information and channel quality indicator (CQI) information on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), wherein a number of symbols for the ACK/NACK information is determined based on the first offset information and the size of the uplink data, and wherein a number of symbols for the CQI information is determined based on the second offset information and the size of the uplink data.

8 claims

Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. A method performed by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: identifying first offset information and second offset information; determining a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) of uplink data for the UE; and transmitting, to a base station in the wireless communication system, the uplink data with at least one of acknowledgement/non-acknowledgment (ACK/NACK) information and channel quality indicator (CQI) information on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), wherein a number of symbols for the ACK/NACK information is determined based on the first offset information and the MCS of the uplink data, and wherein a number of symbols for the CQI information is determined based on the second offset information and the MCS of the uplink data.

2

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: receiving information on the MCS from the base station.

3

3. A method performed by a base station in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: identifying first offset information and second offset information; determining a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) of uplink data for a user equipment (UE) in the wireless communication system; and receiving, from the UE, the uplink data with at least one of acknowledgement/non-acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) information and channel quality indicator (CQI) information on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), wherein a number of symbols for the ACK/NACK information is determined based on the first offset information and the MCS of the uplink data, and wherein a number of symbols for the CQI information is determined based on the second offset information and the MCS of the uplink data.

4

4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising: transmitting information on the MCS to the UE.

5

5. An apparatus in a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the apparatus comprising: a hardware controller configured to identify first offset information and second offset information, and determine a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) of uplink data for the UE; and a transmitter configured to transmit, to a base station in the wireless communication system, the uplink data with at least one of acknowledgement/non-acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) information and channel quality indicator (CQI) information on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), wherein a number of symbols for the ACK/NACK information is determined based on the first offset information and the MCS of the uplink data, and wherein a number of symbols for the CQI information is determined based on the second offset information and the MCS of the uplink data.

6

6. The apparatus of claim 5 , further comprising: a receiver configured to receive information on the MCS from the base station.

7

7. An apparatus in a base station in a wireless communication system, the apparatus comprising: a hardware controller configured to identify first offset information and second offset information, and determine a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) of uplink data for a user equipment (UE) in the wireless communication system; and a receiver configured to receive from the UE, the uplink data with at least one of acknowledgement/non-acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) information and channel quality indicator (CQI) information on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), wherein a number of symbols for the ACK/NACK information is determined based on the first offset information and the MCS of the uplink data, and wherein a number of symbols for the CQI information is determined based on the second offset information and the MCS of the uplink data.

8

8. The apparatus of claim 7 , further comprising: a transmitter configured to transmit information on the MCS to the UE.
